"The lake mists fly up ...."


The lake mists fly up, then dissolve, dissolve.
The moon sinks lower toward the thick forests.
Worldly matters are so overwhelming:
I’d be an old man with a bamboo rod!
Qiwu Qian

Riches






Riches,
With you
and them.

"One by one ..."





One by one bright gifts from heaven
Joys are sent thee here below;
Take them readily when given,
Ready, too, to let them go.

Adelaide Anne Procter

"I have no news"


I have no news
of my coming
or passing away--
the whole thing
happened quicker
than a breath;
ask no questions
of the moth.

Farid ud-Din Attar

All of us cruise









All of us cruise
Some do it better
than others.

When life unfolds



When life unfolds
naturally,
it warms
with colours.
